A Quaint Hotel

We were able to get a room in the Sydney CBD for $115 a night. Quaint is not a word I use often but that was what came to mind when I saw it. We had to go to the bar to check in and it was tiny probably six or seven tables and the bar was in the corner.
Then we had to go to the fifth floor, lift was across from the bar.
It was a manual door, this is the first door to open.
This was the second door and yes, either use two hands or both of us had to push it open. There was a sign inside to say that the lift could hold twelve people, it would have been like sardines if twelve could even fit in there.
Our room had a shared bathroom, wash basin inside, toilet down the hall and two bathroom across the hall, one was in better repair than the other. It was clean, plenty of hot water from the shower, also a bath if we wanted to go down that path.
Everything that you could want oh, except air con or heating but we were only there to sleep, beds were comfy.
The breakfast room. This was on the third floor and open 24/7 with bread for toast, cereal, tea and coffee, milk and juice in the fridge. They did ask that we wash our own dishes after use.
A pretty building across the street from our breakfast table, the green was brighter in reality.

On Saturday night there was a birthday party and a bucks night happening between us and the bar and although we could hear the music, it wasn't so loud that we couldn't sleep.
The hotel was a seven minute walk (when we went the right way lol) from the conference, a real bonus.
